Art Journaling Page + Giveaway

Posted in Art Journal Series, July 2017 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone!! I’m here today with another Art Journaling Page plus a Giveaway to share with all of you!!

My good friend Josefine and I decided to get together and do a mini Instagram hop using Gel Press Petite Plates.

Both of us love using Gel Press Plates on our art journaling pages. So when we saw the petite plates we had to give them a try and share what we love with all of you!!

This petite set comes with 3 gel press plates:

3″ Hexagon
3″ Oval
3″ Rectangle

We wanted to show how we used it to get everyone excited about them.

Take a look at my page:

gel press petite plates

I wanted to show how you could create different impressions using all three of the plates. My design is very random and I love it that way. Not much thought goes into my pages. I used StencilGirl Stencils for each of my impressions.

So for each impression I use the same process:

This what the plates looks like once you take them out of the packaging.

Once I decided on the plate that I wanted to use, I placed the stencil right on top of the plate.

Then I added some paint on top of the stencil and used a brayer to even the paint onto the plate.

This is what the plate looks like after the paint is evened out.

Take the stencil off of the plate to see the pattern transferred onto the plate.

Press the plate onto the paper to create the design your looking for.

Totally fun and no two impressions will ever look the same.

So what do you think? Aren’t these petite plates fun to use.

Altenew July 2017 Release Blog Hop + Giveaway

Posted in Altenew Blog Hop, July 2017 by Kreative Kymona

Hello everyone and welcome to Altenew’s July 2017 Release Blog Hop!! Today we are showcasing the all of the new Stamps, Dies and Inks. If you’ve arrived here from the wonderfully talented Agnieszka Malyszek blog, then you are on the right track. If you arrived here on your own, then you will want to start at the beginning, the Altenew Card Blog so that you don’t miss a thing!

Take a look at my layout:

Altenew July 2017 blog hop

I truly love how this layout turned out. I have to admit, when I sat down to create this page, I was clueless as to what I wanted to do. I knew I wanted to use this photo of my sisters baby bump. As I moved papers and embellishments around, it all came together.

For this layout, I used three of the new stamp sets, Altenew Baby Balloon, Little One and Extended Family. I paired them with Altenew Reflection Scrapbook Collection.

Altenew July 2017 blog hop

My baby sister is having a baby and my entire family can not wait for her this little one to arrive. So I decided to dedicate a page to my sister.

To create this page:

I cut the white card base to 6 x 8 and rounded the corners using We R Memory Keepers Tab Punch Board.
Creating the title was the next step. Using the Extended Family stamp set to cut out the word niece and adhere it to the title using the Brother ScanNCut.
The onesie from Altenew Little One was a perfect addition to add to this page.
I didn’t have the die to cut these out so I used my Brother ScanNCut to cut out the onesies.
Spray each of the onesie with Altenew Frosty Pink Spray Ink and dry them.
Once they dried, punch a hole at the top and string the silver twine though the holes.
Adhere the twine to the back of the white card panel.
Adhere the photo onto the white card panel using foam dots.
Use Altenew Baby Balloon stamp set and stamp the sentiment at the bottom of the white card panel.
Adhere the card panel onto the pattern paper using foam dots.
Cut some of the white flowers that come in the Reflection Scrapbook Collection and place them to the right side of the photo under the white card panel.
To add balance to the page, stamp a sentiment from the Baby Balloon stamp set on the main scrapbook page, to the right of the photo.
To finish the page off, add enamel dots in random places on the layout.

Nothing to it!! So what do you think? I would love to hear from you.

What is a blog hop without an amazing gift? Yayyy!!
